Before the holidays come, everyone is looking forward to where they can have time to play. But when it comes time to actually take a vacation, there are always endless chores to deal with.
Finally, after Wayne submitted the revised version of the manuscript again, Chris threw it aside unbearably.
"So why do we have to have a holiday just like working?" she asked herself very speechlessly.
"Ever since we left the academy, we seem to have been busy with the publishing house."
"..." Wayne didn't know how to answer.
Isn't this normal? Even if I am not busy with the publishing house, it is difficult to truly relax.
"Chris, this is the price of growth~" He smiled and took this month's financial report submitted by the publisher from her desk.
As the sole funder, all operations of the publishing house are centered on Chris's plan. Moreover, it is still in the early stages of construction, and the net profit is not too high, and most of it has been invested in new projects.
"Ah, no! Work is work, life is life!" Chrissy, who has always been very lazy, couldn't bear it anymore.
"I decided, I want to fish!"
she demanded confidently.
Wayne joked: "Where are you going to fish in this winter?"
Even if he wanted to visit famous attractions in neighboring provinces as before, Duke Elliot might object out of concern for their safety.
After all, the current situation in the kingdom is no better than before.
Chris couldn't give a suitable answer for a while. After worrying for a long time, she slammed the table: "No matter what, at worst, I won't go to Eve's house again. I have to take these three days off!"
After making up her mind, she ran back to her room and started packing her suitcase.
Wayne, who was following her, couldn't laugh or cry when he saw this.
Chris is really like a child sometimes, willful and mischievous.
However, on the premise that no bad things will happen because of it, being able to act as willfully as you want in front of your loved ones may also be a kind of happiness...
So, he just replied very thoughtfully: "No matter where you go, I will accompany you."
Hearing this, Chris paused in packing her clothes, and a smile appeared on her lips.
However, she was not willing to weaken her voice so easily. "Of course you have to accompany me, I won't let you go~"
"Do you want me to go talk to my parents?" Wayne took the initiative to share her worries.
Due to her distrust of Chris's misbehavior, no matter how favored she was, she was always rejected whenever she made such requests.
However, if the same request was made by Wayne, the treatment would be completely different.
Thinking of the huge difference in the treatment of the two people, Chris pouted her lips and let out an unhappy "hum".
"Mom treats you much better than she treats me." She said in a sour tone.
Wayne was amused by her cute and ridiculous words and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to cradle her head.
"Hey!" Chrissy was about to hit him with her backhand.
"Idiot...of course he will be polite to his son-in-law." Holding her hand, Wayne looked at Chris with burning eyes.
Not to be outdone at all, she said, "You are the idiot."
"Okay, I'm stupid."
Wayne made a fist with one hand and stretched it out in front of Chris, "Then please, can I interview some Miss Chris, why do you like an idiot?"
Seeing that he accepted it so smoothly, Chris had a new understanding of his shamelessness, and was stuck for a long time.
But after thinking hard, she finally found a powerful countermeasure to fight back.
"——It's not that I like idiots, it's idiots that like me." After she proudly made the above declaration, she looked like she was invincible in the world.
Wayne was speechless at this stroke of God.
As expected, Chris is not a new-age girl that ordinary people can handle.
…
Chrissy, a girl from the new era, finally went to a hot spring resort with her friends for a vacation.
Taking this opportunity, Wayne also invited a partner to accompany him, that is - the piano prince Lawrence who has been very melancholy recently.
"Actually, I don't go to hot springs very much." Lawrence said.
"Then I have to thank you for being willing to give me this face." Sitting in the vacant guest room, Wayne took a big sip of tea and praised with satisfaction. “This place is quite well-equipped and even provides outdoor barbecue.”
In the cold winter, it can be said that there is no better experience than putting aside those troubles and having a relaxing meal of hot springs and delicious food.
The only fly in the ointment is that Lawrence's interest has always been low. Even if Wayne tried to enlighten him for a long time, it had no effect.
"It's really good."
After saying that, he suddenly sighed. "This seems to be the first time I go out after that party."
Wayne raised his eyebrows.
"I had thought about asking Richard to go with me." He mentioned the name that the two of them had tacitly avoided along the way.
Lawrence knew very well that Wayne was also Richard's good friend, and his expression did not change.
"But then I thought about it, I can say something more frankly in front of you... But if Richard is present, I can't say it as much as I want." Wayne sighed.
Under his heartfelt words, Lawrence's expression moved slightly.
"Everyone has their own troubles, whether it's me, you, or Richard, no exception..."
At this point, Wayne changed his voice and smiled brightly: "So, when you can have fun, let's have fun. There are a lot of troubles waiting for us in the future."
Lawrence also forced a smile, looking more relaxed.
After everyone had finished resting, the girls who were traveling with them called the two of them at the door: "Master Wayne and Prince Lawrence, come out for barbecue!"
Then there was another burst of laughter like silver bells from outside the door.
Chris invited quite a few friends this time, a lot of girls were like team building in a dormitory. Wayne and Lawrence are the only two green leaves among a large number of red flowers, so their preciousness naturally increases exponentially.
Not only were people constantly greeting me, but even the girls were grilling and handing over the barbecue throughout the whole process, making the dining atmosphere extremely pleasant.
With the girls around him chatting with each other from time to time, Lawrence finally lost the depressed look on his face and began to chat and laugh.
Taking a big bite of a piece of delicious roasted beef, Wayne turned his attention to Chris sitting in the crowd on the other side.
She was surrounded by good friends. Under the stars, Chrissy, who had always been particularly popular with girls, felt like a duck in water.
Without herself, she could have lived an unquestionable winner's life in this world...
——If you don’t have yourself.
